Welcome to the July 2010 edition of K Monthly, a look back at some of the best original coverage, including reviews, previews, features, weekly columns and more from Kotaku.

How did Kotaku spend its summer season? By visiting the San Diego Comic-Con for one, covering all things video games, comic books, toys and pop culture from the annual nerd-a-thon. We also reflected, once again, on how games and summer mix with our annual Summer of Gaming theme week.

Of course, we also played a bunch of video games, including StarCraft II, Dead Space 2 and everything that's coming to the Wii this fall.
